Boca Event Featuring Anti-Muslim Speaker Canceled for Safety Reasons

Not wanting to court danger, the Boca West Country Club has refused to host the Palm Beach Republican Party's "Lobsterfest" dinner that advertised controversial Islamic critic Geert Wilders as the keynote speaker. Geert was part of the Garland, Texas, cartoon contest that invited participants to draw the Prophet Muhammad. Islamic law prohibits any image of the prophet to ward off idol worship.

However, extremists have violently attacked or threatened with death anyone who has published a drawing or depiction of Muhammad over the years. The belief was what prompted extremists to attack the headquarters of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, where 12 staffers were gunned down.

Last week in Texas, in an attempt to fly directly in the face of that law, organizers put together a $10,000 Muhammad cartoon contest. The contest drew the attention of two gunmen who tried to kill participants with assault rifles. Police were able to thwart the attack and shot and killed the suspects. Not long after, ISIS announced that it was responsible for the attack.

Ask for forgiveness. Repent. Turn the other cheek.

I asked God. God forgave. I won’t suggest Max is a fag any more. I will give another chance to Max. However if he keeps on doing the same then I will turn in complaints again.

I did nothing to ask to be called a fag.

I pointed out he was being exceedingly unhelpful. And I yet see a paucity of anyone volunteering out of FR to help such an event (paucity = zero).

Unpleasantness? Is that all you care about?

How about caring that you are all acting the keyboard warrior. It is so cheap, so easy to call someone a coward you have no intention and no wish to help. It is so easy to tower from on high with invective, and that is why I show how God takes umbrage towards that.

Cowards die a thousand times, the brave but once.

There are many ways to teach the Boca Club a lesson. I have friends in the WPB Republican Club (lived there for thirty years) and believe a great deal of anti Boca can be generated. It might help to bring some much needed cohesiveness to the WPB group as well.

I question the ability of the Boca Club to cancel the event it had already accepted. Does anyone else see a parallel with refusing to bake a Homosexual wedding cake?

You had me little confused before. I thought we were generally on the same page. But now you have me a lot confused. And since I prefer not to converse when I’m confused, I think I’ll just take a pass on the rest of this debate.

I live in Boca it has a vast wealthy cowardly liberal elitist population, many if not most are Jews; the type that believe Israel should surrender land to Palestinians, I’m not surprised at this, I would be surprised if they did not allow some muslin terrorist connected Imam to speak that would just be soooo cooool!

There are other places in Boca Raton they could hold this event and they should.

Would some government official or all government officials everywhere please tell these monsters we don’t care what they believe?? They do not get to set the rules for the rest of the world. This is OUR COUNTRY, we have our own rules and we live by them and we will not submit to any brutal, savage, murderous thugs and hoodlums anywhere EVER and we don’t give a hoot how offended they become. If they want to live in OUR country, they DENOUNCE those beliefs and actions or move to one of their third world hellholes and do their slaughtering there!

Let’s see politicians take a stand for us and against them for a change!

Whatever happened to “if we don’t carry on with our lives the terrorists win”.

The islamonazis must be defeated on every battlefield. In the Mideast, in parking lots, and at country clubs.

Islam has been a danger to all non-muslims since their prophet wrote his book with instructions to kill or enslave unbelievers.

All muslims are obligated to seek world domination of Islam.
The only safe muslims are those who don’t practice their faith.

There are many people on this site who can and will take steps to exert the defense of our right to Free Speech. How can you question their intentions when they have simply not YET seen the best way to react to this situation created by Boca West?

Aren’t YOU “towering from on high with invective?”

Something will happen very shortly. A cool head will prevail. There are still enough followers of Patton in America. To quote him “I’d rather have a good plan today, than a perfect plan three weeks from now.”
